Re: CVE Request - Go net/http library - HTTP smuggling

[Jason Buberel <jbuberel () google com>]

Forian,

We do have a security () golang org alias, and a proposal for a more formal
security review process <https://github.com/golang/go/issues/11502>, but I
agree that the process isn't clear enough currently.

In this particular case, the reporter sent a messages to go-dev () golang org.
That was then forwarded to me for handling.

And I agree on the bundling. Is there another specific issue that you're
tracking? Feel free to contact me directly - jbuberel () google com.
